BTW, I have to admit I think the Wings are in big trouble if they can't somehow get a top 4 (for them) d-man. That playoff streak might be in jeopardy.

Your statement still stands, it could have crippled them, but less so.

No secret Boyle is being shopped by the Sharks especially after signing Stuart. He's 36 and has 2 years I think left at over 6 mill. After the Quincey committed armed robbery getting almost 8 million for 2 years. Maybe the Wings will make a play. Rumor mill says Preds and Wings both kicking tires. If I'm the Sharks I play hard ball as he has interest from some teams in the East also. Hope they make it hurt a little if its the Wings or Preds.

Carolina signed Alexander Semin to a one year deal for 7 mill.

I thought he was going back to Russia, but he might be a good fit in Carolina. OTOH, since nobody else wanted him, I'd have thought they could have had a discount. He's certainly not worth 7 M outside the KHL.

Agreed....Unless he brings his "A Game" every night (and he never has), he certainly isn't worth anywhere near 7 million.
